    Hey yall,

    So i have just recently fixed my GSOD issues and have thrilled with the laptop, yet last week a new issue arose. I use my computer mainly as a desktop replacement, so instead of shutting my computer down i put it to sleep at night. I reprogrammed the power button to enter sleep mode. So at night, ill push the button, wait for my computer to go to sleep, and then close the screen. THe next day, when i push the power button to wake up the computer, the computer becomes active--HDD light is flashing, i hear the fans humming and what not--but the screen remains black. I then have to push the button to send it back to sleep and then wake it up again. THis second time, however, everthing is functional. What is the deal?

    Try waking the computer up with any button on the keyboard EXCEPT the power button.

    See if there's a difference.

    I have this issue as well, along with a hibernation issue that BSODS most of the time when trying to resume from hibernation. Using the V3 VBios and Radeon 10.7 drivers. I'm still trying to figure this out...
